Chapter 286 The 5th Hokage?
Chapter 286 The Fifth Hokage?
Early the next morning, Muye Village was filled with a solemn atmosphere.
After a war, death is inevitable.
Where there is death, there must be a funeral.
Kakashi was wearing black clothes, holding a white flower, and walked towards the place where the memorial monument was.
Today, all those who died will be buried here.
At this time, many people were walking towards the comfort monument.
Kakashi felt a little emotional. At the beginning of time travel, the first thing he did was to attend the funeral.
In the Nine-Tails Rebellion, the number of casualties was ten times and a hundred times that of this time, and even Mr. Minato and Mrs. Kushina were involved.
Compared with that time, this funeral is obviously a little less important.
But that didn't detract from the sentimental atmosphere of the funeral.
"Yo, Kakashi."
A familiar green figure appeared in front of Kakashi.
"Ah, Kay, do you want to go together?"
"Of course, we are eternal rivals!"
Kai stretched out his thumbs, revealing his gleaming white teeth.
Kakashi smiled slightly, and followed Kai to the memorial monument.
The world is so wonderful, after 13 years, it seems to have returned to the way it was when I first came to this world.
Everything seems to be yesterday, but it has obviously been so long.
The boy at that time has now grown into an existence that can stand on his own.
Whether it's Kai or Kakashi.
At the beginning, the two had argued over the issue of sacrifice, but at this time, neither of them spoke.
After experiencing so many things in the world, they have already seen this kind of death very clearly.
Growth is the process of gradually restraining emotions.
This road is not long, and it is even more familiar to Kakashi.
The two walked slowly, but finally arrived.
The tombstones everywhere, the black crowd, and the gorgeous white flowers.
The sky was drizzling, and it didn't wet the clothes, but it stained the hair.
Kakashi placed the white flower in the middle, then retreated, standing silently among the crowd.
At this moment, he is just a worshiper, nothing more.
Soon after, the three of Naruto also came here. Naruto put away his usual carelessness, and his expression became a little heavy, which made people feel a little distressed.
This may be the first time Naruto understands what it means to be a companion.
Not many words, some just a long silence.
The funeral was presided over by Sandai Hokage, he didn't speak as much as before, he just said a few words.
The Third Hokage, who regards all Konoha people as their own children, is not feeling well at this moment.
Naruto asked Iruka his doubts.
"Iruka-sensei, people...why would you risk your life for others?"
Iruka on the side was stunned when he heard the words, and he suddenly remembered that he had asked Kakashi the same question in front of the memorial monument nine years ago.
Iruka looked at Kakashi, Kakashi nodded, but did not speak.
Iruka stroked Naruto's hair and said softly, "Naruto, do you know? When I was your age, I asked Kakashi-senpai the same question."
"Huh? Really? What did Kakashi-sensei say?" Naruto asked with a puzzled expression.
Iruka smiled and said: "When a person dies alone, everything will disappear, his past, present life and future will disappear together. Many people will die in war or on missions, and will Died really easily."
"Among these dead people, some people also had dreams. Everyone has their own most cherished things. Parents, siblings, friends, lovers, partners in the village are very important people to themselves. "
"They trust each other, help each other, and from the moment they are born, they have a bond with someone they think is important, and this bond will become stronger and stronger as time goes on."
"It doesn't need any great reason, but people with this kind of fetters will do it, because it is what they cherish the most. In this world, there are far more frightening things than death, so people just Will choose to protect."
"So, Naruto, we have never been afraid of death, but we are afraid of being powerless and unable to protect the faith in our hearts."
Naruto looked thoughtfully, and looked at Kakashi who was not far away.
The funeral is over, but life goes on.
Naruto Building, Jonin Conference.
The third Hokage sat in the front, his old face looked very kind.
The three advisors sat next to the third Hokage.
"This time, Sand Hidden and Otonin jointly attacked Konoha. The situation has been investigated clearly. Orochimaru killed the fourth Kazekage and deceived Sand Hidden Village. Although Sand Hidden Village's behavior can be forgiven, compensation is necessary. This A little bit, and then we will discuss it with the mission in Shayin."
All the ninjas nodded when they heard the words, and they didn't have any comments.
Those present were all Konoha's elites, and they were familiar with such things.
Three generations of Hokage once again talked about some things that the village dealt with after the war, and handled these things in an orderly manner.
After all, Hokage has been in power for decades, and no one in Konoha Village is more familiar with these things than him.
An hour later, all these matters were dealt with.
Just when everyone thought the meeting was about to end, Sandai Hokage suddenly said: "I feel deeply guilty about Orochimaru's attack on Konoha this time. Orochimaru escaped from my hands back then, which led to today's disaster. So, I plan to take the blame and resign."
Everyone was surprised, and Lu Jiu said: "My lord, you need to think more about this matter. Replacing Hokage is a very troublesome matter, and it may affect Konoha who has just settled down at this time."
"Shikahisa, I've thought about this matter, Konoha needs a new leader, and I'm too old to do what I want, so no matter which way you look at it, it's time for the new Hokage to take office. My old bones should have rested 13 years ago, and I have been tired over the years."
"This..." Lu Jiu was silent for a moment, knowing that what Sandai Hokage said was very reasonable.
"Okay, the next step is to determine the candidate for the new Hokage. Let's nominate a new Hokage today, and I will report it to Lord Daimyo for the final decision."
As soon as the third Hokage said this, all the jounin looked at each other, as if thinking about who is the new Hokage.
Hinata Hyuzu and Uchiha Fugaku are also very calm at this time, because they all know that the position of Hokage is definitely not their turn.
Whether it is the Hyuga clan or the Uchiha clan, they are important forces in Konoha, and if the patriarchs of these two families become Hokage, it will inevitably benefit their own family.
And being Hokage, in addition to ability, you also need justice.
Although it is possible to show favoritism, the interests of the clan must not be placed above the village.
Kakashi suddenly felt that many eyes were on him, especially the eyes of the third Hokage, full of expectations.
Kakashi smiled wryly, are all these people interested in him?
The noisy conference room fell silent in an instant, and Shikahisa Nara stood up again and said, "Master Sandai, I recommend Kakashi Hatake as the fifth Hokage."
"The reasons are as follows: first, Kakashi Hatake is a disciple of the fourth generation of adults, the son of Lord White Fang, and has a prominent status; second, Kakashi Hatake defeated the fourth generation of Raikage and prevented the invasion of Hidden Cloud Village in time. Third, Kakashi Hatake is the head of Anbu, and has the ability to command, and fourth, at this time, Orochimaru invaded Konoha, and Kakashi's performance is obvious to all."
"Based on these four points, Hatake Kakashi is definitely qualified to be the fifth Hokage, please consider the third generation."
The Third Hokage nodded with a smile on hearing the words, and said, "Lu Jiu's words are very reasonable, so please vote."
All the gods looked at each other, and then raised their hands one by one.
Hinata Hinata glanced at Kakashi kindly, and then raised his hand.
When Kakashi solved the crisis of the Hyuga Clan, Hyuga Nyuzu has always been grateful to Kakashi, and the relationship between the two is not bad. If Kakashi becomes Hokage, it will only be good for the Hyuga Clan.
Uchiha Fugaku also raised his hand, and Fugaku saw everything that Kakashi did for the Uchiha clan.
Fuyue believes that Kakashi becoming Hokage is definitely the best choice for the Uchiha clan.
Almost all of the people raised their hands, which surprised Kakashi slightly. It turned out that he had accumulated so many contacts without knowing it.
Seeing this, the Third Hokage smiled and said, "Hatake Kakashi, would you like to be the Fifth Hokage?"
